SUMMARY:America’s Failed Response to the Opioid Crisis with Author Shoshana Walter
DESCRIPTION:America’s Failed Response to the Opioid Crisis with Author Shoshana Walter\nWith Special Guest Host Barbara Kingsolver\nRegister and Submit Questions \nJoin us for a special conversation between award-winning journalist Shoshana Walter and bestselling and award-winning author Barbara Kingsolver as they chat about Walter’s book Rehab: An American Scandal. In this work\, Walter\, a Pulitzer finalist\, exposes the country’s failed response to the opioid crisis\, and the malfeasance\, corruption\, and snake oil which blight the drug rehabilitation industry. \nToday\, more people have access to treatment than ever before. So why isn’t it working? The answer is that in America—where anyone can get addicted—only certain people get a real chance to recover. Despite record numbers of overdose deaths\, our default response is still to punish\, while rehabs across the United States fail to incorporate scientifically proven strategies and exploit patients.  \nIn this book\, you’ll find the stories of four people who represent the failures of the rehab-industrial complex\, and the ways our treatment system often prevents recovery. April is a black mom in Philadelphia\, who witnessed firsthand how the government’s punitive response to the crack epidemic impeded her mother’s recovery—and then her own. Chris\, a young middle-class white man from Louisiana\, received more opportunities in his addiction than April\, including the chance to go to treatment instead of prison. Yet the only program the judge permitted was one that forced him to perform unpaid back-breaking labor at for-profit companies. Wendy is a mother from a wealthy suburb of Los Angeles\, whose son died in a sober living home. She began investigating for-profit treatment programs—yet law enforcement and regulators routinely ignored her warnings\, allowing rehab patients to die\, again and again. Larry is a surgeon who himself struggled with addiction\, and would eventually become one of the first Suboxone prescribers in the nation\, drawing the scrutiny of the Drug Enforcement Administration.  \nBe sure to register now to participate in this urgent conversation and learn insight on how we might fix the system to save lives. \nAbout the Author:  \nShoshana Walter is a reporter for the Marshall Project covering the criminal justice system. Her reporting has been honored as a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and Selden Ring\, and she has won the Knight Award for Public Service\, the Edward R. Murrow Award\, and the Livingston Award for Young Journalists. She started her work on the treatment system at The Center for Investigative Reporting\, where her work appeared in The New York Times Magazine\, in newspapers\, and on NPR stations across the country. She is based in Oakland\, California. \nAbout the Guest Host:  \nBarbara Ellen Kingsolver is a Pulitzer Prize-winning American novelist\, essayist\, and poet. Her widely known works include The Poisonwood Bible\, the tale of a missionary family in the Congo\, and Animal\, Vegetable\, Miracle\, a nonfiction account of her family’s attempts to eat locally. In 2023\, she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for the novel Demon Copperhead. Her work often focuses on topics such as social justice\, biodiversity\, and the interaction between humans and their communities and environments. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Art Talk - Music in Art
DESCRIPTION:For centuries\, music and visual art have danced together inspiring creativity across every medium. From masters like Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso\, who found rhythm in color and form\, to the rise of album artwork as a musician’s visual signature\, the connection between sight and sound has always been electric. \nThis creative relationship truly rocked in the 1960s and ’70s\, when album covers became works of art in their own right. That magic is still alive today! \nJoin us for an Art Talk with Kim Ivancovich from Hutchinson Community College\, where we’ll explore how music inspires art and vice versa. Talk about your favorite album covers of music themed artwork with us. \nThen\, get hands-on as we create our own music-inspired art together — a chance to connect\, create\, and celebrate our shared love of artistic expression. \nRSVP today and let us know you’ll be joining the fun! Thank you for supporting your library and Hutchinson Community College through your participation — we can’t wait to make art with you!

SUMMARY:The Astral Library with Kate Quinn - Virtual Author Talk
DESCRIPTION:Register and Ask Questions of the Author \nYou’re invited to join us for a virtual conversation with acclaimed author Kate Quinn about her latest fantastical work\, The Astral Library\, which poses the question: Have you ever wished you could live inside a book? Welcome to the Astral Library\, where books are not just objects\, but doors to new worlds\, new lives\, and new futures. \nAlexandria “Alix” Watson has learned one lesson from her barren childhood in the foster-care system: unlike people\, books will never let you down. Working three dead-end jobs to make ends meet and knowing college is a pipe dream\, Alix takes nightly refuge in the high-vaulted reading room at the Boston Public Library\, escaping into her favorite fantasy novels and dreaming of far-off lands. Until the day she stumbles through a hidden door and meets the Librarian: the ageless\, acerbic guardian of a hidden library where the desperate and the lost escape to new lives…inside their favorite books. \nThe Librarian takes a dazzled Alix under her wing\, but before she can escape into the pages of her new life\, a shadowy enemy emerges to threaten everyone the Astral Library has ever helped protect. Aided by a dashing costume-shop owner\, Alix and the Librarian flee through the Regency drawing rooms of Jane Austen to the back alleys of Sherlock Holmes and the champagne-soaked parties of The Great Gatsby as danger draws inexorably closer. But who does their enemy really wish to destroy—Alix\, the Librarian\, or the Library itself? \nRegister now to hear more about The Astral Library\, crafted for all bookworms and lovers of literature.  \nAbout the Author: Kate Quinn is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of historical fiction. A native of Southern California\, she attended Boston University\, where she earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in classical voice. A lifelong history buff\, she has written four novels in the Empress of Rome Saga and two books set in the Italian Renaissance before turning to the 20th century with The Alice Network\, The Huntress\, The Rose Code\, The Diamond Eye\, and The Briar Club. The Astral Library is her first foray into magic realism. She and her husband now live in Maryland with their rescue dogs.
